Data Access
The S-Plus data are accessible by a variety of means:
Data Lab Table Access Protocol (TAP) serviceTAP provides a convenient access layer to the S-Plus catalog database. TAP-aware clients (such as TOPCAT) can point to https://datalab.noirlab.edu/tap, select the splus_dr1 or the splus_dr2 database, and see the database tables and descriptions.
Data Lab Query Manager
The Query Manager is available as part of the Data Lab software distribution. The Query Manager client provides a Python API to Data Lab database services. This includes authenticated access, synchronous and asynchronous queries, TAP queries, personal database storage, and storage through the Data Lab VOSpace.
Image cutouts
The Data Lab Simple Image Access (SIA) service provides a fast way to retrieve cutouts from S-PLUS images. For an example of how to use the SIA service see this Jupyter notebook that describes it for the SMASH data set (about 2/3 the way down the page). For S-PLUS DR1, the SIA URL is https://datalab.noirlab.edu/sia/splus_dr1. For S-PLUS DR2, the SIA URL is https://datalab.noirlab.edu/sia/splus_dr2.
